We are happy to announce ESPResSo pre-releases are available as binaries on the development stack of EESSI. Several commits of the python branch of ESPResSo can now be used on HPC clusters that adopted EESSI, as well as in GitHub CI/CD.
Continuous testing (CI) and continuous deployment (CD) are important to ensure the reproducibility of software and executable papers. Python projects like pyMBE and SwarmRL are using pre-release versions of ESPResSo to test their software against the most recent ESPResSo features, without having to wait for the next official release. Simulation scripts and Jupyter notebooks can now be shared and executed on GitHub runners without the need to build ESPResSo from sources.
To help you get started with this new service, we wrote a tutorial with re-usable GitHub workflows: https://www.eessi.io/docs/blog/2025/12/04/gh-ci-workflow-for-EESSI
